The HIPAS catalogue - HI sources from a blind survey of the southern sky

This catalogue forms the largest uniform catalogue of local H I sources compiled to date, giving a new perspective on the local universe. Using the data of the HI Parkes All-Sky Survey (HIPASS), covering the entire sky delta 12,700 km s(-1), the southern region of the survey (delta < +2degrees) has now been searched to full survey depth yielding similar to4500 sources. Issues presently under examination include the H I structure and dynamics of the local universe, the H I mass function, galaxy groups and clusters, the 2-point correlation function and the Tully-Fisher relation.
